Buzz Buzz Busy Bee Parade

 Buzz, Buzz , Buzz  . They are buzzing all about! - That is my bee stitches. Though I do not officially display my bees until July- August, I do have some out and about buzzing their merry little way into my vignettes. 

This time of the year I enjoy not only stitching patriotic stitches , but all things bee as well. 

You know what?! Today is a perfect day for a parade - a bee parade of previous stitches .So please join me as I look back at some of the freebies I have shared. If there are any that you are interested in, I invite you to click the link and buzz right over to that post. I hope you enjoy!

I added a gourd pin with some buttons to the corner of the pinkeep.

So what do you think? Do you think I am "bee crazy"?  LOL. I have to admit I am mad over bees. The most popular of these bee stitches  this year seems to be  Mary's Basket  Strawberry Pinkeep .  Last year it was  Aunt Bea's Summer Home
Still , my favorite is a A Basket of Honeysuckle  , but I do have to admit that they all in some shape or another have a special place in my heart.

Thank you so much for dropping by the hive to see my parade of stitches and doodles. You have brightened my day! Y'all have a beautiful day  and as always...

Happy stitching and quilting, y'all, 

Melisa
